Management

Data validation campaigns only concern counters which take benefit from Expert or Professional offer.

1 – Start a campaign

What is data validation used for?

To verify the quality of your data, validation campaigns are set up between you and our data analysis expert service. Your data is analyzed by our services over a given period, and any anomalies are detected in order to propose data reconstructions. You will then probably be called upon to justify certain anomalies if you are aware of certain events.

When the campaign is over, the data will be validated. You will then be able to communicate on reliable data.

How does data validation work?

Administrators who have domains concerning at least one counter with an Expert or Professional subscription receive an email to start a data validation campaign on the counters concerned.

Access all campaigns from the left sidebar tab “Data Validation”.

The data validation campaign cycle takes place in 3 stages:

• Upcoming: The campaign has not yet started. It is configured, and is waiting to be activated from the start date of the defined period.
• In progress: The campaign has started. Our Data service will analyze the data over the period, and will detect atypical data. The challenge will be to determine whether this atypical data is linked to anomalies relating to the counter, or whether it is a justified event. In this process, the campaign manager will be called upon to provide qualitative data and validate the reconstruction requests.
• Finished: The campaign is archived. The counting data over this period is validated.

 

How to change campaign settings (period, delivery date and responsible)?

Go to the “Upcoming” tab to view the list of data validation campaigns

For each campaign, default settings are assigned:

• ID number
• Analysis period with a start date and an end date
• Number of sites affected by data validation out of the total number of sites on the domain.
• Campaign status
• Campaign manager

Click on the campaign to change the settings.

A side panel on the right will appear.

Edit the campaign information on the “Information” tab:

• Set the campaign a start date and a end date. A campaign cannot exceed 13 months.
• Set the specific delivery date. A minimum of 4 weeks is required after the end of the period.
• Assign a campaign manager. To be eligible, they must be an administrator or manager, with access to all the counters concerned by the data validation.

Click on “Save” to save the settings

Click on the “Sites” tab to display the counters concerned by this campaign.

2 – Check for detected anomalies

How to provide information on atypical data that has been noted?

You will be notified when the validation campaign is in progress, and when an action from the campaign manager is requested.

Click “Continue” to review the anomalies detected, or “Not now” if you wish to do so later.

Go to the “In Progress” tab to view the list of data validation campaigns in progress.

The campaign status changes to “Feedback needed”.

Click on the campaign to check for anomalies.

A side panel on the right is displayed.

Optionally click on the “Sites” tab to display the counters concerned by this campaign.

Learn about the current steps of the campaign in the “Information” tab.

Click on “Start” to check for any anomalies detected.

The list of counters that present anomalies is displayed with the following information:

• The campaign period
• The number of sites concerned, as well as the number of periods that present detected anomalies
• The name of the site with the types of practice
• The total number of suggested periods to be reconstructed (icon )
• The number of anomalies for which a feedback is needed from the campaign manager by our Data Service (icon )

Click on a site to expand the list of anomalies.

View the associated chart with the periods to be reconstructed in highlight.

Click on the atypical data to confirm a reconstruction of the data, or keep them original.

Leave a comment to respond to the observations of the data service, and possibly justify an event that explains an unusual change if you are aware of it.

Repeat the operation for each requested period. Click on “I am finished” to validate your information.

How is the reconstruction review going?

Now that all anomalies are identified, and the Data Service has proposed a data reconstruction for these periods, the campaign status changes to “Reconstruction review”.

Click on the campaign to check the reconstructions.

A side panel on the right is displayed.

Optionally, click on the “Sites” tab to display the counters concerned by this campaign.

Learn about the current steps of the campaign in the “Information” tab.

Click “Continue” to review reconstructions.

The list of counters presenting reconstructed data is displayed with the following information:

• The campaign period
• The number of sites concerned, as well as the number of periods with reconstruction suggestions.
• The name of the site with the types of practice
• The number of suggested reconstructions (icon )

Click on the site to view the suggested reconstructions.

View the associated graph with the periods to be reconstructed in highlight.

The dotted data on the reconstructed periods represent the original data. This allows for comparison of data before/after reconstruction.

Click on the atypical data to accept the reconstruction or keep the original data.

Repeat the operation for each requested period.

Click on “I am finished” to end the campaign.

3 – Exploit validated dat

How to view completed campaigns?

View completed campaigns in the “Finished” tab”.

Click on the campaign to display the details.

In the “Information” tab, you can see that all the steps have been completed.

In the “Sites” tab, you can find the list of the concerned counters.

How to analyze validated data?

Go to the “Analysis” tab to analyze the validated data.

On the analysis charts, you can choose to display all data, or only validated data.

Click on “all data” in the chart display settings.

Select “validated” to only display data for periods that have been verified and reconstructed.
